1. Slide a bead onto a headpin. Bend the wire over 90 degrees using the chian-nose pliers. Cut tail of wire so it is 1 cm long using wire cutters. Grab end of tail with round-nose pliers and roll wire into loop.
2. Repeat to put a bead on every headpin. Add bead caps to the headpins with rondelles.
3. Attach a beaded headpin to the chain 1/4” in from the end. Open the loop on the headpin using the chain nose pliers, slide the loop open like a door without losing the circle shape. Slide the loop through the chain, then close the loop. Repeat adding a beaded headpin to the chain every 1/4”.
